There is a bit of humor in this. . .
. . but what I think is even more funny, is that you bleev this to be funny, b/c you have no idea about that bot activity that was going on at that site to generate an astroturfing propaganda illusion.
That whole notion, that it was "successful?" Was fake, that was all an illusion.

Democrats attack journalists for covering Deep State’s censorship of Twitter
If there was any doubt that the Twitter Files have struck a nerve and deep fear in the Powers That Be, Thursday’s disgraceful behavior by Democrats in a hearing featuring journalists Matt Taibbi and Michael Shellenberger eviscerated it. Taibbi and Shellenberger had not even uttered a word yet...

He's a lucky bastard, I'll give you that.Besides SpaceX, Tesla, and PayPal what successes has Elon Musk ever had? Total loser!
Roomed with the guys who invented paypal. Used that money to buy the tesla patents, and space x loses money like twitter but all orbital transport does at the moment.

No pal, it was valued at $44 billion.It was successful enough to be valued at $4 billion.
Or is Elmo just that big a sucker?
"Musk bought Twitter for $44 billion, funded $13 billion by loans from big-name commercial and investment banks, and $31 billion in equity," Tully writes. "Of the latter portion, Musk contributed about $24 billion of his own cash, while a group of investor friends including Larry Ellison, Ron Baron, and Prince Al Waleed of Saudi Arabia provided $7 billion."
Musk’s post on X on Labor Day evening “may rank as the most negative, in fact self-indicting, assessment a corporate leader has ever issued about their own enterprise,” according to Tully. In the post, he blames the Anti-Defamation League for most of X’s revenue loss. “I don’t see any scenario where they’re responsible for less than 10% of the value destruction, so around $4 billion,” he said. You can read Tully's back-of-the-envelope calculations about what that means X's total value might be here.
Linda Yaccarino, the CEO of X, will be a speaker at Fortune’s annual Most Powerful Women Summit next month. So, she may give an update on how things are going at the company. In the meantime, will you be reading the book?"
Elon Musk’s grim financial assessment of X
Elon Musk’s grim financial assessment of X
A Fortune report analyzes Musk's latest statement about X’s revenue loss.
According to Elon Musk’s own math, the company formerly known as Twitter has lost 90% of its value and could be worth just $4 billion
Musk posted the bleak financial assessment as part of a rant against the ADL.
After he got rid of the bots? And stopped its collusion with other Big Tech, the Deep State and the government? NOW it is valued at $4 billion.
. . . and you know what is really crazy?
Even after he takes a $40 billion loss. . . his net worth is $250 billion, he can still afford that, for the sake of the free world... . .
Or is Elmo just that big a sucker?
Yeah, it is a hard lesson, but one everybody knows. . . don't trust authoritarian shitbags. They will lie, cheat and steal for the sake of their agenda. Duh.

Bot traffic doesnt just affect twitter, its an internet wide problem.
With that said however I find it curious how no one is pointing out the fact that you have a guy supposedly allowing more freedom on a social media site, and you have all these billion dollar corporations refusing to advertising on the platform in protest.
No one noticed that aspect of all this? They all preach equality, until it comes to free speech.
